Federal homeland security grants
State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) and Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) funding can support aerial and counter-UAS capabilities for eligible agencies and regions.
Grants + funding / NOFO support / Public safety
Fund the program,
not just the hardware.
Most public safety aerial programs fail on paper before they ever fail in the field. IntelAerial helps agencies find the funding, build the application and design the program behind it — needs assessment, investment justification, budget narrative and all.

What we build with you
Applications that read
like a program.
Reviewers score hundreds of applications. The ones that win are the ones that read like an operating program — documented need, justified cost, real SOPs and a plan for the year after the award.
Needs + threat assessment
A documented picture of the problem: what you are protecting, what the threats and gaps are, and why aerial capability is the right answer. The foundation of every strong application.
Investment justification
The narrative that connects the need to the requested equipment and services — written in the language reviewers and auditors expect, tied to the NOFO’s priorities.
Budget + cost narrative
Line-item budgets, phasing and cost justification that survive review — including sustainment costs, so the program is funded beyond year one.
Program design + SOPs
The operating plan behind the request: flight operations, privacy and civil-liberties protections, data handling, training and records — showing reviewers a program ready to launch.
Performance + compliance measures
How the program will report what it achieved: mission counts, response times, documentation quality and the compliance records grant managers require after award.
Post-award support
After the award: procurement support, implementation planning, pilot programs and the documentation that keeps the program compliant through closeout.
The funding cycle
Four phases.
One funded program.
Grant cycles reward the agencies that prepared early. We work the full cycle with you — and we start before the NOFO is even released.
Before the NOFO
We build the needs assessment and threat documentation now, so you are ready when the window opens — not scrambling in the final week.
PREPARE
Application window
We draft the investment justification, budget narrative and program design alongside your team, aligned to the NOFO’s scoring criteria.
APPLY
Award + launch
Procurement support, implementation planning and pilot flights that put the program in the air with documentation intact from day one.
LAUNCH
Sustainment
Ongoing operations, reporting and the next application — because the strongest programs are funded in cycles, not once.
SUSTAIN
Why IntelAerial
“The strongest applications read like a program that is already flying.”
IntelAerial's public safety division is led by Cecil Moses — a former FBI agent who spent many years with the FBI in Alabama, including leading the Birmingham field office, and later served as Chief of Police of Madison, Alabama. We know what reviewers, auditors and grant managers need to see.
We build the program first and the application second: needs assessments, budget narratives, SOPs, privacy protections and performance measures — the same documentation our own operations run on.
